THE least arsed I ever am about Liverpool is when they are shite. I honestly don’t care, I can detach myself from it, it just doesn’t hurt. I still pay my money, I still go, I still enjoy the wins but the horrible slog of watching a team on a downward spiral with very...

I LIKE Jürgen Klopp. You can’t really know a “celebrity” but I think I’m not miles away with Jürgen. I’ve watched, I’ve listened, I’ve learned. He’s exactly the same age as me — give a take a month — and I feel I’ve got a decent...

AS sliding doors moments go, this week has been a pretty unfortunate one for Jürgen Klopp and his Liverpool team. If they clear the corner against Sevilla and win 3-2, elation and praise follows. If Willian doesn’t mishit his attempted cross and The Reds win 1-0...

WHEN I saw the selection I presumed we were in for something; in for a trick. I presumed there was some grand unifying plan of Liverpool’s intention, something to thrill and surprise. I thought it may be similar to West Ham or perhaps an unlikely back three to...

WANT to see a magic trick? Jürgen Klopp has got a cracker, he can turn three points into one in the blink of an eye. For the second time in five days, Liverpool have contrived once again to throw a victory away with the finish line in sight and no doubt the manger...

Pre match THE hair transplant derby. I’ve been thinking about the process of stitching some hair from one part of your head onto another part of your head a fair bit, there. As a baldy, there is nothing quite like a cold wind to have you harking back to the glory days...

THE launch of a new ticketing forum along with other focus groups has led to the first steps of investigating the possibility of designated areas for younger fans to congregate at Anfield. There are two teams looking at specific areas – one for allocation, the other...

AN alarm call at 3.30am is likely to result in — at best — a fumble for the snooze button and — at worst — said alarm being angrily launched across the room as an instant return to slumber is sought. So when it instead sees you springing out of...

THE Mersey wind sweeps across the school playground, the rain puddles testimony to the darkening evening as another year approaches its end. Huddles of parents and grandparents gather their hats and coats against the wind, waiting expectedly for their young charges to...

IT’S been a fuzzy week. I think it’s going to take a while to make sense of what happened to us all in Spain and around the Sevilla game. I think I’ve experienced new things this week, although it has been through a fog of too much beer, wine, cheese and things fried...
